I Take It Back.

A few blawg posts ago, I claimed I couldn't/wouldn't use Linux (specifically Ubuntu) as my 'primary OS'. As I sat here on this laptop that has had little to no problems since I installed Ubuntu on it, I realised something. There has been NO PROBLEMS.


Now you might be thinking, "Okay but I have no problems with Windows Matt.", well I always have. I had problems with Windows 7 on my iMac, I had XP die on this laptop and Windows 7 on this laptop runs like a crusty turd on a slide made of cement.


But this blawg post isn't to slander on other OS's, at least not this one. This one is to say I think I now have enough trust in Ubuntu to be able to use it to store my music and movies and important files etc.


"...but what caused this revelation?!" you may be thinking. Well just think about it. This laptop is going on archaic. Windows will not run on it properly, even though it was designed for XP. I have had no problems, even WITH my Windows partition still intact. I think that's enough convincing.


Also, on a side note, I may be starting up a new blawg for music and other awesome things perhaps. Don't worry, my personal blog will stay here, I'm not leaving you loyal readers.
